The San Diego Padres' ongoing quest for a World Series (or at least a playoff title). "You know that many runners enter a race, but only one of them wins the prize. So run to win! Athletes work hard to win a crown that cannot last, but we do it for a crown that will last forever." 1 Corinthians 9:24-25

Off to Colorado

We lost the last two games of the weekend pretty badly. On Saturday, Tim Lincecum was untouchable. He threw 138 pitches in 9 innings to beat us 7-0. The bullpen was bad. On Sunday we had a 6-2 lead but a strained bullpen allowed the Giants back into it and they won 8-6 in 10 innings. So going into today, we are 7 losses away from 100 on the season. We are 20 and 1/2 games behind. The bullpen is totally suffering right now, and who knows how much Wade LeBlanc will be able to give us tonight in Colorado. Hopefully we can get something good tonight. We really need a win. GO PADRES!!
